Notes: | [Reiss;norwich92, see Crouch/Trimming 2020]; Nicolas de Bailleul (fl 1725-1765) was the youngest of a family of engravers working the first half of the eighteenth century. Like his father Gaspard and elder siblings Fran?is and Marie, Nicolas concentrated on the engraving of letters and inscriptions, and so his cartographic output is particularly rare. In particular Bailleul published a large wall map with border scene vignettes 'L'Afrique divisee suivant l'entendue de ses pricipales parties..., ' Lyon, Daudet, 1752. |
